Wenger

Say the name 'Wenger' and many may think only of the outdoorsy sportsman who combines it with Swiss Army knives. Utter the term in fashion-conscious circles, however, and there is a good chance that several watch mavens listen up. Just like the Swiss Army knife combines functionality and elevates it to the next level with the help of multi-purpose uses, the company’s watches echo this design philosophy.

Wenger watches are essentially unisex in design, although various lines show distinct sizing differences between ladies’ and gents’ models (and are also marketed as such). The philosophy behind the basic design is one of ruggedness and a collection of functional components. These timepieces are essential gear for whitewater rafting, rock climbing, mountaineering and also swimming that quickly and easily become functional accessories for the boardroom meeting or a night on the town.
